Abstract(s)

Electronic tongues (ET) have attracted great interest due to its potential to obtain global Information from complex samples that could hardly be obtained by traditional instrumental methods of analysis. These multi-sensor arrays provide a huge amount of sample information which, by applying chemometric methods, allows sample identification/ classification, taste evaluation as well as, multicomponent analysis. The method of operation consists In obtaining a signal pattern which corresponds to the overall Information on the sample using chemical sensors with high stability and cross sensitivity to different species in solution. In this work, a potenclometrlc electronic tongue or taste sensor array was used. The device had 20 sensors, based on all-solid-state electrodes with lipid polymeric membranes formed on solid conducting silver supports.
